A blessed life
What a great year. We are so blessed it's ridiculous.
We live a sweet, full life. We have a wonderful family. We are honoured that some of the people who are changing the world - certainly they've changed ours - are cherished friends. We have freedom to travel, freedom to worship, and we have never gone hungry.
Photojournalist Kevin Carter's 1994 Pulitzer prize-winning photo puts things in perspective. That little boy is a haunting reminder of the blessed life we live. (A link to the photo here: http://www.huaren.com/UnitedNations/photo-1.htm)
In 2008, I raise my glass to a deeper understanding of gratitude and a stronger commitment to seeking justice, loving mercy and walking humbly.
